in kanazawa, japan (aug’24)
stayed a couple days in kanazawa to explore what else the city had to offer. as it was the peak of summer, it was perfect to explore yoshoku (western food) here. one of the most famous would be makino ncî, an innovative japanese french with very unimaginable combinations which surprisingly work well.
was impressed with the ayu and green tomato combo with an ayu cake which mellows out the bitterness well. potato chip with shiro ebi was also a favourite and was surprised by the cocoa on unagi with a refreshing pear narazuke in maki. we had to make our own eggyolk sauce for our fried amadai which was quite interactive and fun. prosciutto wrapped burrata with peach and eggplant was also quite interesting and tasty. ended with a laksa broth with an awabi rice, which was a bit too complicated especially with the addition of gorgonzola on the rice.
super friendly chef and team with fun interactive, unique but tasty courses. super foreigners friendly and easy to reserve. a good try in kanazawa.
